Why kids shouldn't watch Naruto
Takeshi:
Drew, IMO, America have experienced way too many shootings at schools. Who knows? This kid might've taken a gun two years later and killed several students and teachers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_shooting
Natheria:
These are the same school systems Drew that believe marking papers in red pen hurts the child's self esteem. I once told one of my teachers in high school years ago that the only reason why everyone else was on medication in the room except me was that they wanted to keep us quiet, and her response was "be quiet Brian!". There is no such thing as quality education till college.
Oh and Takeshi, i thought about that too but suspending the kid doesn't really do anything for the situation, it just blows it way out of proportion and makes the kid feel even more inadequate.

Which insane country allows it's people to carry guns? ... Never mind.
The death note thing is just depressed people seeking attention. They need to be relocated to a better environment, not suspended.

Yeah, I can follow you in that, they should do more than just suspend him, send him to a psychologist or something and thoroughly follow the case. The psychologist should be able to confirm whether he was just writing the names for fun or actually was a nuutcase~
Honestly, I could think of writing some people's names in the "Death Note" back when I was 3-4 years younger, some people back then was really ticking me off, but hey, we all feel that way sometimes in school life, that's natural. But even if I wrote the names, I wouldn't be able to kill someone, FFS. And how?
Now, in America it's a whole other case. Killing someone with a knife or beating someone to death would require a killer intent. With guns you're able to shoot/kill someone by just pulling the trigger, even by accident. And we all know how easy it is to require a firearm in America which is one of the many reasons why I'll never move to America.
IMO, they did the right thing in Virginia. And I hope they did more than just suspend him, even though there wasn't any follow-up news on Youtube. These school shootings are happening too frequently...

Well... the gun thing did get out of control for a bit imo. But then again, better safe than sorry, right?
